 This arrangement allows BlackRock to borrow Bitcoin, including for short-selling, without proving a 1:1 holding ratio.

These transactions settle in 2 to 30 days, all in cash, not Bitcoin. Off-chain trades occur outside the blockchain, remaining invisible on the public ledger.

 Surprised more folks aren't talking about this.  
 This is available in all major tradable markets, have similar setups and only have moved upwards. 
If there's manipulation then its likely to be upwards.
If (but a BIG IF) its ill-mannered shenanigans, Bitcoin will teach them a lesson in due time.
